But it doesn't say when it changed.

Recently? You noticed it when you were using it?


Some yellow canisters are now called "Mapp-Pro"
which does not mean professional. Sadly, so.
I think it means map diluted with propane.


It's not diluted MAPP. It's a propane based substitute that doesn't burn
as hot.
